asset to the community and accommodate both the sports teams and the lot lot
area be In e safe locallon - supports concept #1 (exhibit "A"). Councilman
Shanks said that he did not agree with Councilman Ybaben and gave a brief

PUBLIC HEARING / ORDINANCE NUMBER 1548/ EXTENSION OF INTERIM
ORDINANCE NUMBER 1541/ MORATORIUM ON THIRD STORY BUILDINGS
e
Page - 5 City Council - 01-24-06
.
Mayor Larson declared the public hearing open for consideration of extension of
Interim Ordinance Number 1541. The City Clerk stated that the notice was
published in the Sun newspaper on July 13th, 2006, as required by law and no
correspondence for or against this item was received by the City Clerk's office.
The Director of Development Services indlceted that the Council raceived copies
of the correspondence received regerding this issue - 5 were in favor and 11
were egainst and a petition with 46 signatures was also received. The Director
stated that the purpose of the public hearing was to consider the extension of
Ordinance Number 1541 that was adopted by Council on June 28th - eccording
to the provisions of stete law en urgency ordinance Is only effective for 45 days
and before the and of that period the Council must hold a public hearing and
receive commants In order to consider the extension of the ordlnenca and must
receive a 4/5 vote. For Council consideration was an ordinance that would
extend the previously adopted ordinance to 10 months end 15 days and
background material was also provided. The Director explained that the
Planning Commission had approved a time schedule to expedite the process of
reviewing the Zoning Code - study sessions could be held weekly followed by
public hearings by the Commission and the Council - new regulations could be
adopted by early 2001. The moretorium Issue will raqulre more study due to the
commun~y concems - the petition the Council received indicated the concern of
how the moretorium would effect the entire city - the 3 story building Issue only
effects the residential area in District I zone (medium and high density). The
Director presented a map that showed where the properties that are affected are
located. Council would rescind the urgency ordinance upon adoption of the new
regulation ordinance - by law a report describing the measures taken to alleviate
the condllions thet led to the adopllon of the urgency ordinance was prepared
(July 14,2006) and a copy was'glven to tha Council end a copy was available to
public review. Councilman Ybeben clarified that the Council could edopt a date
certain (6 months) ordinence that would ensure everyone would get the Job done.
Councilman Shanks inquired if covered roof eccasses would be affected -
response was "no". Mayor Larson asked those who wish to speak to this item to
approach the podium and stete their name for the record. Mr. Pat Keams, 15th
Street, said that he would like to see the moratorium lifted and stili do the study of
the zoning codes - his main issue Is the lack of parking in Old Town. Mr. Jim
Caviola, Ocean Avenue, stated he is in favor of the moratorium - be consistent.
Ms. Mitzi Morton, Seal Beach, said she supports the continuation of tha
moratorium end shorten the study time to 1 months. Ms. Gerri West, Electric
Avenua, said she supports the moretorium and a structure in excess of 25 feet in
height would have adverse affect on the neighborhood - when the decision was
made to allow 3 stories it did not occur to anyone that someone would allempt to
make money out of putting two 25 foot lots together and making a structure as
envisioned on 13th Straet --the former City Manager was removed because the
people wanted to keep Seal Beach a unique smelllown and not make a quick
buck. Ms. Joyce Parque, Seal Beach, said that the Council cen do a study
w~hout a moratorium - not more than a haW a dozen people have even come to
City Hall for a perm~ to 'build a 3 story building - this is America, what is wrong
with making a profit - courts have said that you can not stop someone from
building because it tekes away your view. Mr. Keith Newberry, 16th Street, said
that this issue was brought up about 1 0 years ego end there was no urgency _
urgency ordinance is not needed - the loop hole is building condos - put a
moratorium on all building permitS. Mr. Scott Levitt, developer for 13th Street,
staled that he Is against the moratorium extension - legal parameters of the
moratorium and the reqUirement of extreme mailers that the Council was trying
to prevent; indigent circumstance and quantifiable effect on public welfare,
safety, and health - stated a court case (Lake Tehoe) -there is no damage and
no proof to Justify the moratorium. Mr. Eldon Alexander, 8th Street, said he
attended the Planning Commission meeting and the moratorium does not meet
the standards required for an urgency ordinance. Ms. Carolyn Alexander, 8th
Street, staled that the moratorium d09S have en affect on other people - going to
the extreme and should not stop ell construction - will get fewer larger families In
the City - should not use emotional key words - if you want to change the codes
.

e
then change the codes without a moratorium - go through the normal process.
There being no speakers Mayor Larson declared the public haaring closed.
Councilman Levitt said thet his slalemenls were reported inaccurately in the
newspapers and read a short statement: the issue is not about 3 story buildings
- .tls about denying properly owners the legal use of their properly - a vote to
extend the moratorium is wrong and the City will be sued. Councilman Antos
explained that the original ordinance provided for a hardship applicallon process
and approved the pipeline projects and recommended that the extension be for 6
months (January). Councilman Shanks said that the Planning Commission can
not work that quickly and would like to have the moretorium extended for 1
months and Councilman Antos agreed. The City AlIomey clarified that there
were 3 properties exempt from the moratorium and that there was a hardship
exemption - suggeslad that whatever time limit that the Council agrae to that the
Council also include the hardship exemption language that wes in Ordinance
1541, section 4. Councilman Ybaben referred the extended moretorium as a sofl
moratorium -the City will not stop all 3 story buildings exception will be granted -
believes that a moratorium would apply pressure on the Development
Depertment to get the job done. The City AlIomey clarified that after the
extension period of 1 months is up the Council can legally extend it one more
time. Mayor Larson slated thai tha only reason this Is before the Councll is
because of a 3rd story to e condominium - the Planning Commission can stili do
a study without an ordinance - can not flnd a reason to extend the moratorium -
no souroe for an emergency. Councilman Levill repeated that this is not about 3
stories but rather a condominium - if it was a duplex then It would not have
become an issue. Councilman Antos commented thet If the moratorium does not
pess then the Council does not heve any bases to get the Planning Commission
and staff to address this in a timely mailer.
Antos moved, second by Ybaben, to adopt as amended Ordinance Number 1548
entitled "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH EXTENDING
INTERIM ORDINANCE NO. 1541, PROHIBITING THE ISSUANCE OF
BUILDING PERMITS AND OTHER LAND USE ENTITLEMENTS IN THE
RESIDENTIAL MEDIUM DENSITY, DISTRICT I, AND RESIDENTIAL HIGH
DENSITY, DISTRICT I ZONES FOR ANY. CONSTRUCTION OF OR
ADDITIONS TO ANY SWELLING UNIT IN EXCESS OF 25 FEET IN HEIGHT
DURING THE PENDENCY OF THE CITY'S REVIEW AND ADOPTION OF
PERMANENT ZONING REGULATIONS FOR SUCH USES AND DECLARING
THE URGENCY THEREOF." The extension lime period was changed to seven
(1) months and Section 5 would be added (hardship language - section 4 in
Ordinance 1541). The Clly AlIomey reed the title into the record. By unanimous
consent, full reading of Ordinance Number 1548 was waived.

Motion failed
The City Manager clarified that at the last Council meeting a list of priorities of
what needs to be studied by the Planning Commission was approved by Council.
The Zoning Code end Local G.oaslal Plan were the top two priorities - Meyor
Larson staled that the Council made it a priority for steff the revise the Zoning
Code and to complete the Local.coastal Plan - this will teke time.
.
PUBLIC HEARING / CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 06-4 / APPLICANT'S
APPEAL /132 - 13TH STREET
Councilman Levitt recused himself due to the possible conflict of interest (the
applicant is his son) and left the Council Chambers. The C/Iy AlIomey noted
that Councilman Levitt does not have a flnancial interest In this project. Mayor
Larson declared the public hearing open for consideration of Condillonal Use
Permit No. 06-4. The City Clerk slaled that the notice was published in tha Sun
newspeper on July 13th, 2006, as required by law and no correspondence for or
against this lIem was received by the City Clerk's offlce. The Director of
Development Services explained that the Council has 2 separate considerations:
e
pege - 1 City Council- 01-24-06
e
1) appeal of CUP 06-4 for property at 132 - 13th Street for a condominium
development and 2) a public hearing to approva a tantetive parcel map on the
subject property. The 3 options are: 1) uphold the Planning Commission
decision, 2) grent the applicant's appeal (approve TPM 2006-160), and 3) deny
CUP 06-4 in Its entirety - a resolution will need to be drefled and brought to
Council for adoption. The Director went over the Planning Commission process
_ backup malerial Included in the steff report. The appeal WBll filed In a timely
manner. Staff combines the eppeal and TPM in the seme steff report butlwo
separate legal notices ware sent out as required by law. The Diraclor explained
the process that the Council needs to follow to consider the appeal he also
provided pictures of the al<isting property. The Council received copies of
correspondence received . 18 In favor of the 3 story condominium and 1 in
opposition. Mayor Larson asked those who wish Ie speak Ie this item to
approach the podium end stale their name for the record. Ms. Joyce Parque,
Seal Beach, said she is In favor of the appeal - the applicant followed codes and
went through the process - the owner has agreed to the project - this would be 2
home ownerships not rentals - showed pictures of other projects. Mr. Scolt
Levitt, developar of 13th Street, gave a summary of the process and stated his
cause - met all the requirements for a condominium (CC&R'S) - received a
walvar from the Coas\el Commission - W this project was a single family duplex
then no CUP would have been required - believes a flyer that was sent out with
misleading information caused this problem - read sentencas from the General
Plen that was omitted from one of the Commissioners slatements - will be
building a duplex in the next 30 days.
Shanks moved, second by Ybaben to waive Section 11 and 18 of Resolution
5179 to consider the remainder of the agenda Items after 11 :00 p.m. and adjourn
the meeting by 11 :59 p.m. - no objections.
Mr. Jim Caviola, Ocean Avenue, said this project Is not compatible with the
neighborhood and the owner of the property is not present and urged to uphold
the Planning Commission decision - no special privileges. Ms. Gerri West,
Electric Avenue, asks to uphold the Planning Commission decision end steted
that escrow is subject to Council approval- maximum height is 2 stories. Ms.
Mitzi Morton, Seal Beech, stated she opposes the appeal- build a 2 story condo
or build a 3 story duplex. Mr. Warren Morton. 13th Street, said not to build 3
stories. Mr. ScoII Levitt rabutted that the owner is required to sign all the
documentations/papers and is aware of the project - escrow will close on July
26th - there is no difference from a 3 condo and a 3 story duplex. Thera being
no speakers Mayor Larson declared the public hearing closed. The City AlIomey
clarified that the same building can be built as a duplex (rental) without any CUP
and the code provides an opportunity for Council to review W this condominium
projeclls compatible and if Council finds grounds thet this is not compatible you
have no opllons to look at this as a duplex (no CC&R'S).
Antos moved, second by Shanks, Ie uphold the Planning Commission decision
and direct steff to drefl a resolution for approval of CUP 06-4 with conditions
limiting the height to 2 stories; and to drefl a resolution approving Tentetive
Parcel Map 2006-160.

The City Attorney noted that if there are no other motions that receive a majority
vota then the decision of the Planning Commission will be upheld. Councilman
Ybaben steted that It appears thet the Planning Commission Is creallng a new
zoning law that says W you build a rentel units then you abide by the culfantlaw
and if you build a condo then you have a new law that says it can only be 2
stories high - Pfenning Commission does not have the authority to do this - the
building will be built anyhow.
